Definitions

  • the invention relates to devices for transporting containers, and in particular, to devices that turn containers upside-down during transport thereof.
  • a known device for transporting bottles or other containers is a transport-star having container receptacles on a periphery of a rotor that can be driven to rotate about a vertical machine axis.
  • the containers are each individually transferred to these container receptacles at a transfer position from an upstream machine or an upstream plant component.
  • the rotor rotates, the containers are then transported, while being held at the respective container receptacles, to a discharge position where they are passed to a further machine or plant component.
  • containers In the course of being transported on the transport path between a first machine or plant component and a second machine or plant component, the containers sometimes have to be turned. For example, containers that are treated in a rinser in an inverted position or inverted orientation must be turned back to their normal attitude and transferred in that normal attitude to a filling machine.
  • the object of the invention is a device that, while simplified in design and compact in overall size, enables not only the transporting of the containers from a transfer position to a discharge position but that, at the same time, and on a transport path, also facilitates a swinging of the containers about an axis that is perpendicular to the container axis.
  • container axis means the vertical axis of the containers and is also usually the axis of the container opening of the respective container.
  • inverted position or “inverted orientation” mean a container orientation in which the opening of the container points downward.
  • normal attitude or “normal orientation” is a container orientation in which the container opening points upward.
  • the inventive device is configured in such a way that the container receptacles, which are preferably formed of container grippers, are pivoted from an initial position through 180° in a first direction on the transport path, which is the direction between the transfer position and the discharge position, and then are pivoted back through 180° on the remainder of the transport path, which is the portion that is between the discharge position and the transfer position, i.e. the container receptacles are pivoted in an opposite second direction so that each container receptacle is back in its initial position at the transfer position.
  • the container receptacles which are preferably formed of container grippers
  • the lifting and pivoting movements are each controlled by curves, and hence positively controlled synchronously with the motion of the container receptacles.
  • the extents of the lifting movements are preferably equal or essentially equal to the size of the containers along their container axis.
  • the lifting and pivoting movements are preferably coordinated with one another so that each container is pivoted about an axis that intersects the container axis at, or essentially at, its center.
  • FIG. 1 shows in a simplified perspective functional representation a rinser and a filling machine for containers in the form of bottles, together with a conveyor of the transport star wheel type arranged between these machines or plant components for transferring the bottles from the rinser to the filling machine;
  • FIG. 2 shows the rinser, the filling machine and the conveyor of FIG. 1 in plan view
  • FIGS. 3 and 4 show respectively an enlarged side view and a plan view of the conveyor of the transport star wheel type shown in FIG. 1 .
  • FIG. 1 shows a rotary rinser 1 , for example a wet and/or dry rinser, for treating or for rinsing, cleaning and/or disinfecting the interior of bottles 2 using a liquid and/or dry treatment medium.
  • the rotary rinser 1 has a rinser rotor 3 that can be driven to rotate about a vertical rinser axis MA 1 in the direction of arrow A.
  • Treatment stations 6 are disposed on a periphery of the rinser rotor 3 .
  • the treatment stations 6 are mutually spaced apart from each other at equal angular distances.
  • Each treatment station 6 has a gripper-like bottle holder 4 and a treatment nozzle 5 for discharging liquid or gaseous and/or vaporous treatment medium into a bottle 2 .
  • bottles 2 are oriented in an inverted position, i.e. with the container axis or bottle axis orientated vertically and therefore parallel to the rinser axis MA 1 of the rotary rinser 1 with the bottle's opening 2 . 1 pointing downward and its base 2 . 2 pointing upward.
  • Bottles 2 are transferred in this orientation to the individual treatment positions 6 via a container or bottle entry (not shown). The turning of bottles 2 from their original normal attitude into the inverted position takes place, for example, in the region of the bottle or container entry.
  • the rinser rotor 3 After bottles 2 have been treated, the rinser rotor 3 passes them on to a transfer position 7 .
  • a bottle gripper 8 of a transport star conveyor 9 picks up and grips the bottle 2 .
  • the transport star conveyor 9 transports the bottle towards a discharge position 10 where the bottle 2 is transferred to a treatment position 11 of a filling machine 12 .
  • the filling machine 12 has a filling-machine rotor 13 that can be driven to rotate about a vertical filling- machine axis MA 2 of the filling machine 12 in the direction of arrow B.
  • Treatment positions 11 are disposed on a periphery of the filling-machine rotor 13 .
  • the treatment positions 11 are spaced apart from each other at equal angular distances.
  • Each treatment position 11 includes a container carrier 14 . 1 for suspending a bottle 2 under a filling element 14 by its mouth flange 2 . 3 , which is beneath bottle mouth 2 . 1 , for the controlled filling of the bottle 2 with a liquid filling material.
  • the transport star conveyor 9 includes a conveyor rotor 15 that can be driven to rotate about a vertical conveyor axis MA 3 in the direction of arrow C and hence opposite to the direction of rotation of the rinser rotor 3 and the filling-machine rotor 13 (arrows A and B respectively).
  • Bottle grippers 8 are provided on a periphery of the conveyor rotor 15 . These bottle grippers 8 are configured, for example, like tongs having two gripping or clamping jaws that are movable relative to one another and that are pre-tensioned by a spring into a closed position.
  • a bottle gripper 8 clamps a bottle 2 between the bottle's neck and mouth flange 2 . 3 .
  • the gripper 8 maintains its grip as the bottle swings into its normal attitude during rotation of the conveyor rotor 15 until the bottle 2 reaches discharge position 10 where it is transferred to a container carrier 14 of a treatment position 11 of the filling machine 12 .
  • a controller (not shown) opens the bottle gripper at the transfer position 7 to receive a bottle 2 from the rotary rinser 1 and then opens it again at the discharge position 10 to transfer the bottle 2 to the filling machine 12 .
  • the bottle grippers 8 are provided in pairs.
  • the bottle grippers 8 in each pair are on a common plate 8 . 1 , or auxiliary carrier.
  • Each pair of bottle grippers 8 is pivotable with the common plate 8 . 1 on a bottle-gripper carrier 16 about a common axis that is formed by the axis a pivot pin 17 .
  • This pivoting axis is oriented tangentially to the periphery or direction of rotation of the conveyor rotor 15 or to a notional circular cylinder concentrically surrounding the conveyor axis MA 3 of the conveyor rotor 15 .
  • Each bottle gripper carrier 16 is provided on a guide bar 18 , best seen in FIG. 3 .
  • the guide bar 18 guides the bottle-gripper carrier 16 during its vertical displacement, i.e. its displacement in a direction parallel to the conveyor axis MA 3 , on the periphery of the conveyor rotor 15 .
  • Each guide bar 18 is offset radially inwards from its corresponding gripper carrier 16 .
  • Each guide bar 18 extends between an upper rotor element 15 . 1 and a lower rotor element 15 . 2 of the conveyor rotor 15 .
  • the conveyor rotor 15 is in the form of a circular cage that offers high strength or stability despite its relatively lightweight construction.
  • the guide bars 18 are also provided in pairs and with one guide bar 18 of a pair being radially offset relative to the other guide bar 18 of the pair. Thus, two guide bars 18 cooperate to guide one bottle-gripper carrier 16 . Each bottle-gripper carrier 16 can therefore be moved vertically on the guide formed by the two guide bars 18 without twisting as it does so.
  • the bottle gripper carriers 16 are arm-like in configuration so that, relative to the conveyor axis MA 3 , they project with their longitudinal extension radially outward from the two guide bars 18 .
  • An articulating joint provides engagement between the bottle grippers 8 , with their auxiliary carriers or plates 8 . 1 , and the distal end of the arm formed by a bottle gripper carrier 16 . This enables the bottles to pivot, as shown in FIG. 3 .
  • a static first control curve 19 i.e. one that does not rotate with the conveyor rotor 15 , and curve rollers 20 that engage the first control curve 19 and that are mounted on bottle gripper carriers 16 so as to be able to rotate freely, cooperate to compel the bottle gripper carriers 16 to move vertically up and down along their respective guide bars 18 as the conveyor rotor 15 rotates.
  • the first control curve 19 is shaped in a way such that a bottle gripper carrier 16 is in its lowest travel position at the transfer position 7 and climbs to its highest travel position at the discharge position 10 as the conveyor rotor 15 rotates. Consequently a bottle gripper carrier 16 climbs as it traverses the angular range of rotor motion between the transfer position 7 and the discharge position 10 .
  • the first control curve 19 compels the bottle gripper carrier 16 to descend back to its lowest travel position.
  • the first control curve 19 has a rising profile on the path between the transfer position 7 and the discharge position 10 and a falling profile on the path between the discharge position 10 and the transfer position 7 .
  • the static first control curve 19 is disposed within the area of movement in which guide bars 18 move as the rotor rotates. It is also attached to a central pillar 21 , which does not rotate with the rotor and which is also disposed within the area of movement of guide bars 18 and on the same axis as the conveyor axis MA 3 .
  • the lower rotor element 15 . 2 is configured as a ring that concentrically surrounds the conveyor axis MA 3 and that is connected, by guide bars 18 , to the upper spoked-wheel-like rotor section 15 . 1 .
  • Curve rollers 20 are each located at the radially inner end of bottle gripper carriers 16 at a short distance from guide bars 18 and hence at a short distance from sliding bushes by which bottle gripper carriers 16 are guided on the guide bars, thus creating optimum drive conditions.
  • the two bottle grippers 8 of each bottle gripper pair are provided on the common plate 8 . 1 by which the two bottle grippers 8 of each bottle gripper pair are provided so as to be able to pivot on bottle gripper carrier 16 about the common horizontal pivoting axis that is orientated tangentially to the rotation direction (arrow C) of the conveyor rotor 15 and that is constituted essentially by a pivot pin 17 .
  • a control arm 22 is attached by one end to each plate 8 . 1 between the two bottle grippers 8 such that this control arm is oriented with its longitudinal extension radial to the respective pivoting axis (which is formed by the pivot pin 17 ) of the plate 8 . 1 .
  • each control arm 22 is configured with a guide piece 23 that engages over a second control curve 24 like a fork. This second control curve 24 is static, i.e. it does not rotate with the conveyor rotor 15 .
  • the second control curve 24 is formed in the depicted embodiment by a tubular section, with the guide piece being guided during its displacement on the second control curve 24 .
  • each control arm 22 in the depicted embodiment is configured telescopically with an axially acting spring assembly that urges the associated guide piece 23 against second control curve 24 .
  • the path followed by second control curve 24 defines a spiral that encloses the trajectory of the pivot pin 17 at a distance therefrom.
  • the spiral has a half turn, or a 180° turn, between the transfer position 7 and the discharge position 10 and another half turn, or 180° turn, in the opposite direction between the discharge position 10 and the transfer position 7 .
  • the distance between the second control curve 24 and the trajectory of the pivot pin 17 is equal to the length of the control arms 22 .
  • the second control curve 24 is further configured so that, on the transport path between the transfer position 7 and the discharge position 10 , the containers are first swung outward with their container base and then are swung back inward again relative to the conveyor axis MA 3 , preferentially in such a way that, half-way along the transport path or angular range of the rotational motion of the conveyor rotor 15 between transfer position 7 and discharge position 10 , each bottle 2 is oriented with its bottle axis radial or approximately radial to the conveyor axis MA 3 .
  • the first and second control curves 19 and 24 are preferably coordinated with one another so that the lifting motion, which is controlled by the first control curve 19 , and the pivoting motion of the bottle grippers 8 about their pivoting axes or pivot pins 17 , which is controlled by the second control curve 24 , produce a resulting motion such that, during the transport from the transfer position 7 to the discharge position 10 , i.e. over the corresponding angular range of the rotational movement of the conveyor rotor 15 , each bottle 2 is effectively pivoted about its bottle center, i.e. about an axis that intersects the respective bottle axis at its center.
  • another advantage of this configuration is that there is practically no height offset between the bottles 2 at the rotary rinser 1 and bottles 2 at the filling machine 12 .
  • the second control curve 24 specifically follows a path such that the longitudinal extension of each control arm 22 is radially oriented to the conveyor axis MA 3 at the transfer position 7 and the discharge position 10 .
  • the second control curve 24 is moreover configured such that it has a different vertical height level at the transfer position 7 and at the discharge position 10 .
  • the second control curve 24 is configured such that, at the transfer position 7 , it has a lower height level, and at the discharge position 10 , it is a higher height level.
  • the lower height level at the transfer position 7 corresponds roughly to the lower level or initial position of the bottle grippers 8 at the transfer position 7 .
  • the higher height level at the discharge position 10 roughly corresponds to the higher level of bottle grippers 8 at the discharge position 10 .
  • the height level of the second control curve 24 first rises vertically from the transfer position 7 to the discharge position 10 and then falls back from the discharge position 10 to the transfer position 7 to the lower height level.
  • the second control curve 24 also follows a path such that the radial distance from the conveyor axis MA 3 at the transfer position 7 is greater than that at the discharge position 10 by twice the length of control arms 22 .
  • the rinser rotor 3 , the filling-machine rotor 13 , and the conveyor rotor 15 are driven synchronously in such a way that whenever a treatment position 6 of the rotary rinser 1 has reached the transfer position 7 , a bottle gripper 8 also stands ready there, and whenever a bottle gripper 8 has reached the discharge position 10 , a container carrier 14 . 1 also stands ready there to receive the bottle 2 .
